personaly, i think there is way too much hype about this game. i mean, sure its good if you have good graphics/effects, but they arrent everything. i buy i game because of game play. how the story plays out, character depth, controls, and obviously, if it suits my desires.

the main thing that really brings down jericho's potential is the time button combos. anyone agree?

otherwise, it looks like a good game. clive barkers twisted mind will bring out the best in all of us.

Personally I love time button combos and I think it makes a great addition to the game. It's always fun to watch what happens, except in spider man 3, that was just stupid.

The only problem is that time buttons don't seem as right as when they are on a gamepad. That of course you can say is preference. But my gawd, there will never be any button combos as good as fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy). My heart honestly started thumping fast and it was just amazing. They really pulled it off nicely.

... OH RIGHT, JERICHO! Yeah, nice demo. My only concern is story. Clive Barker got lucky on Undying but his movie/book career isn't exactly that sexy.

Really? He wrote and directed Hellraiser, which was huge. His books were awesome, I haven't read a bad book from him. I really enjoyed The Great and Secret Show, Imajica, The Books of Blood serieswere very creepy, Everville, TheThief of Alwaysand Abarat. He is a best-selling novelist, and I can see why.

Well i played the demo

Does not seems like a bad game but the thing is that IT IS NOT SCARY just like Undying was

The game story seems a bit weak for a horror game

The Demo was just run and shoot all the time

I expected something with a deep scenario and something that will frighten me

Well i hope the final game is more than just Mindless shooting

i thought the hype surround bioshock was too much. until i played it. i now think the hype was totally deserved, and it was the hype that helped the game sell. i wouldnt have played if it wasnt so hyped (i know i overused the word hype)

Just so you know, the demo takes place halfway through the game. That's why we are in the dark about what's going on and why we are there.

jericho looks great with motion blur turned on and the button timed combos were fantastic and intense.... epecially if u have a headset.. it addds to the overall spectacular participation of the player and its really fun to find out what happens in those scenes

too much hype?!?

do u know the meaning of hype, i think not,
i personally think this game is underhyped, nobody talked about this game at all until the demo just came out and its still not talked about that much,

and IMO i enjoyed the hell outta the demo, it looks like a very engaging single player game

of course, clive barkers IS a genius. im just not so sure about this time. as one of you said the story is pretty weak, and im all about a strong plot and deep characters.

I dont think the games been over hyped compared to some of the big AAA games up to now, even though I guess at the end of the day its down to personnel taste

Bioshock got over hyped this well hell alot of gamers i talk to say, Jericho oO "Like the TV show ?" i personaly want to play the whole thing but i fear that its gona be just like bioshock in where you find out all the plot lines and the game just gets boring after the first play though and you wish there was multiplayer. :P But the answer is no games like Crysis, Bioshock, UT3 and Spore not to mention Duke nukem Forever are all games that have masive hype this dosent.
